To check the system, and verify proper transmission from the HLX-561 to the telemetry receiver, check the central receiver and monitor to ensure the waveforms and alphanumeric data are properly displayed. The wireless network system is now functioning properly.
Setting the Receiving Channel of the Monitor Select the telemetry receiver channel to match that of the telemetry transmission module. The monitor will display the channel number. If the transmission module has a different group code than that of the receiver, set the telemetry receiver group code to correspond to the telemetry transmission module.
Such chemical solutions may damage the resin casing. Sterilization and Disinfection For Disinfection, wipe the HLX-561 and accessories using a gauze or sanitary cotton moistened with inert soap or alcohol. Do not moisten allow moisture inside of the connector to avoid contact failure.
6. Maintenance and Inspection To maintain the safety and reliable functionality and performance of the HLX-561, it is preferable to perform routine and periodic inspections before use. A recommendation is described in this section. Failure to perform routine maintenance and inspection may void the responsibility of Fukuda Denshi.
